  • For players who appreciate the mojo of the past matched to contemporary features, Fender created the Vintera ‘60s Stratocaster Modified. Blending classic looks with a modern neck profile and fingerboard radius, hotter pickups and updated electronics, this guitar packs a surprising amount of power under the hood.
    For modern Fender tone they re-voiced the trio of single-coil Stratocaster pickups, kicking things up a bit by increasing the output for more girth and gain. Thick-sounding, yet articulate, they have the power you need for any style of music. The “Modern C”-shaped neck has a 9.5”-radius maple fingerboard with 21 medium-jumbo frets for classic playing feel. A contemporary, two-point synchronized tremolo offers rock-solid performance and tuning stability, while the S-1 switch adds the neck pickup in positions 1 and 2, unlocking even more tonal variety. Other features include vintage-style tuning machines and strap buttons, chrome hardware and four-bolt neck plate. Includes deluxe gig bag.

      I totally agree, WHY would Fender have this feature on ANY guitar at this point in time? I realized this year that nearly ALL of the Custom Shop Strats have the truss rod adjustment access at the heal. DUMB! And I'm a massive Fender fan.

    • @Erik_Nordlund
      @Erik_Nordlund 5 років тому +7

      @@sinnertrain7405 maybe because they made a whole series based on their vintage era designs, even tho this is the “modified” version, they wanted it to vibe like a vintage guitar, even tho it has a two point trem (which I prefer better than the 6 screws trem)

      All you have to do is loosen the neck plate screws a couple turns and its enough to adjust the truss rod.10 mins and done.

  • @cmkilcullen8176
    @cmkilcullen8176 4 роки тому +5

    Vintage guitars require unscrewing the neck from body of the guitar, re-attaching, testing and taking apart again if another if further adjustments / another slight turn is needed on the truss rod. I think that is pretty annoying. That as opposed to having the truss rod accessible near the head stock makes a difference. I agree I suppose that its not a big deal if you dont have to do this often. But when you do have to do it, its a bit if a magilla on vintage fenders. Just my opinion, and I figured being that this modified guitar had modern accents, it would have been cool to have easier access to the truss rod.

      I bought this color Vintera 60s modified Strat after comparing it at my LGS to Am Pro and Pro II strats with rosewood fretboards. The Pau ferro on mine is darker and less porous than the rosewood on the American made strats, and plays nicely (and much darker and nicer than the nasty, pale PF fretboard on my China-made Epiphone Casino). The neck is chunkier, which I like, but the pickups are way hotter, which I don’t particularly like. But in all I am very happy with the new Strat.

      @Ben Houghton play guitars in shops and even if you're beginner you might still feel what jumps out on you. My exact guitar is really good. They're all different. Maybe more so when cheaper. Mine sounds really good unplugged for example, which you shouldlearn is a good indication of whether a guitar is trulygreat or not. And the exact neck is great. The shop had done a good job setting it up as well. So all I say is that this guitar has the potential to be much more than a beginners guitar

    I wish that by calling this modified, that such meant the truss rod was accessible by the headstock and not at the bottom of the neck. Pain in the a** for neck adjustments.

    • @cmkilcullen8176
      @cmkilcullen8176 4 роки тому

      That is a good question. With more experience and learning, I have come to the conclusion that I have to do that less often than I thought would need be. I live in an apartment where humidity levels and such get whacky depending on the time of year. I've learned that necks move (temporarily) often when the weather changes. Sometimes you need to just leave them alone for a few days rather than get impulsive and panic and start to mess with them. In the summer it gets very humid in the north east. In the winter too, but my apartment can get very hot and dry. Someone suggested I get those HUMI packs. I am going to try them soon as we approach the cold months. Any feed back welcomed.
      With that aside, I just thought the modified 50's strat would have been cool with the more modern modification in this regard... but I see where you are going with this...
